Jon Runyan's looking for work

Talk about the AFC, NFC, the NFL Draft, College Football... anything football that has no Washington Football Team relevance.

Jon Runyan's looking for work

Post by SkinsJock »

Is there any reason why we would not give this guy a chance to play for us? - I hear that he still wants to play and the team's that might be a good fit are the Redskins and the Chargers :?

Until recently, Snyder & Allen have made a lot of really bad decisions - nobody with any sense believes this franchise will get better under their guidance

It's a little late now. They should have brought him in and let him compete during TC. I just think they are trying to get younger, and his age made him unpalatable.

he has had experience with similar terminology, and still would be a big help here with our line

you don't think he could help for a year, maybe 2?

Maybe, but it's not going to happen unless we have a rash of injuries.

I don't know who Jon Runyon is but I know there's a tackle named Jon Runyan looking for work.

:oops: thanks Jake.

I just think the guy would cost about 2 mill per year and provide some quality depth - the guy does have some playing time with the WCO, so he would not need much of an adjustment with the terminology

I think a contract that would pay him around 2 mill per yr plus a small incentive bonus for games played would give us a decent tackle for a year or 2

I think that he's worth getting before you realize you really should have looked at what he could have cost before the injury situation comes along - on this team or another :wink:

I just think it's crazy that Jon Runyan is not on a team... that's just nuts.

Runyan is a big, dumb hick. That said, he would be great on this team.

Better... he's a big, dumb, hick with a nasty attitude... which is something this O-line could use a little more of.
